Lycoming O-360 engine run in test stand - 05/13/11

Recorded with a Sony Ericsson k810i cell phone, so not in HD, but still quite viewable :)

Being an AMT (Aircraft Maintenance Technician) student in an institute near LEBL (Barcelona-El Prat airport) I and my classmates had the opportunity to witness this test run of a Lycoming O-360 engine by the 2nd course students.

The engine was turning on only one magneto, this is why when throttling it down, it sounded like it was going to stop. The propeller was a wooden Sensenich with four blades so as to keep the engine at a reasonable low RPM's during the test.
Another detail is that the carburetor this engine was using did not correspond to it, although it worked quite well as it can be seen :)
